You’re right. Technically they just very strongly suggest it with little or no logical alternative. Our gods are robots. Blizzard had the big dumbs when writing Shadowlands and needs to backtrack somehow, it will be super hard now.
She and Mother Moon are bound together in an eternal cycle. One of death and rebirth.
Rebirth has nothing to do with life. If you were at all aware of any of the TOP theories behind what Elune actually is, you woudn’t infer REBIRTH as PANTHEON OF LIFE.
bound to her counterpart in the realms of Life
Again, STOP INFERRING that this makes her PANTHEON OF LIFE.
That’s like me saying, Khadgar suggesting Elune made the Naruu = ELUNE on PANTHETON OF LIGHT, CONFIRMED.
This is exactly why you’re getting into arguments with so many people about lore, i.e. your own druid-thread; you infer things to the point of being utterly false.
Headcanon is not fact.
This is WoW. Fact is not fact after enough time
Khadgar suggesting Elune made the Naruu
To be fair, one is from Khadgar making a theory, and the other is coming from a Pantheon of Death giving actual information.
Technically they just very strongly suggest it
I didn’t realize that the Primus specifically calling her the Winter Queen’s counterpart in the realms of Life and the Winter Queen specifically calling Elune her sister was just a “very strong suggestion.”
Rebirth has nothing to do with life.
Wow… no wonder you’re wrong all the time. LOL
TOP theories
Again, STOP INFERRING
That’s not an inference. It’s literally her counterpart in the realms of Life.
What’s a counterpart?
coun·ter·part
/ˈkoun(t)ərˌpärt/
noun
a person or thing holding a position or performing a function that corresponds to that of another person or thing in another place.
And what does corresponds mean?
cor·re·spond
/ˌkôrəˈspänd,ˌkärəˈspänd/
verb
have a close similarity; match or agree almost exactly.
Take your triggered, hostile attitude somewhere else. We’re talking about the Earth Mother here.
is coming from a Pantheon of Death giving actual information.
the exact information says “Elune is on the Pantheon of Life”?
Guess I missed that somewhere. Or maybe you’re expecting words like REBIRTH and REALM OF LIFE to insinuate she’s on the Pantheon of Life lol.
You’re dealing with incredibly vague, and thanks to Steve D, incredibly intricated lore. He keeps things vague on purpose to generate theories, as admitted in his interview.
Regardless, if he wanted to make it canon that Elune was on the Pantheon of Life, he would be dam sure to say it as such.
Very easy fix:
“it is suggested that Elune might be on the Pantheon of Life after abandoning the Pantheon of Death for unknown reasons, but this hasn’t been directly confirmed”.
Oh, and just for further citation… page 56 of the Grimoire of the Shadowlands says the following:
Although relatively little is revealed about Elune’s true origins and background outside of mythology, Elune is known to be the sister of the Winter Queen of Ardenweald.[2] While her sister is a member of the Pantheon of Death, Elune is her counterpart in the Pantheon of Life. Together, they embody the balance of a great cycle.[10][11]
Wow… no wonder you’re wrong all the time. LOL
This is exactly why the forums have such a problem with you
Confidence coupled with no idea what you’re talking about. Gross.
her counterpart in the realms of Life
It’s implied. But we honestly don’t know enough about Elune still, so her role is still up in the air.
Could just be another name for Azeroth?
It’s implied
She probably thinks the old gods and void lords are 100% evil too, because its implied that way
She’s still learning the delicate intricacies of ying-yang lore built into the entire cosmological theme.

You do know I’m not on your side in this petty little thing you have going on. That was for you, since you clearly don’t understand something being implied.
I didn’t realize that the Primus specifically calling her the Winter Queen’s counterpart in the realms of Life and the Winter Queen specifically calling Elune her sister was just a “very strong suggestion.”
Like I said, TECHNICALLY it is not because it states nothing about the origins, but there isn’t a lot of wiggle room to infer anything else. The reasonable conclusion for anyone not huffing gallons of copium is:
Our gods are robots. Blizzard had the big dumbs when writing Shadowlands and needs to backtrack somehow, it will be super hard now.
If I had to write it, I’d do it with the first ones used living material to create life and dead material to create death. Lots of dumb in that, but trying to make icecream with spilled milk won’t have a great result however you do it…
Could just be another name for Azeroth?
Yeah, Bonelord posted a video of Bane referring as much in the BfA cinematic. So it’s a decent bet. Though I’ll be interested to see what that means with the stories of her children.
If I had to write it
I wouldn’t have written it at all. LOL Blizz forgot that some mystery is good.
But I see your points.
You do know I’m not on your side in this petty little thing you have going on
I couldn’t care less, nor did I ask.
Your quote had value to my point pal. Thanks for it~
Really disappointed in the lack of “Your Mom” jokes here
We only got one. LOL
And it had value to mine, since you have zero idea what implying means.
Like I said, TECHNICALLY it is not because it states nothing about the origins
We have zero information how its even possible that Pantheon “robots” can just “change sides” like that.
It also seems strange why someone associated with a arcane/moon theme would be on Death and maybe Life.
And her possible connection with Naruu/Light is just bleh
Then you have the little fable with Elune and her blue son …
in short, nothing ties together as to what she is, or where she belongs.
Oh… I wouldn’t go down that road… they’re not very good with words and definitions.
